Relationship between L-valine catabolism and S-β-aminoisobutyrate (S-β-AiB) metabolism. The circled numbers indicate the following enzymes: 1 = branched-chain amino acid transaminase(s); 2 = branched-chain α-keto acid dehydrogenase; 3 = isobutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase; 4 = enoyl-CoA hydratase; 5 = 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase; 6 = an acyl-CoA synthetase (?); 7 = 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase; 8 = methylmalonate semialdehyde dehydro- genase (acylating); 9 = propionyl-CoA carboxylase; 10 = methylmalonyl-CoA racemase; 11 = methylmalonyl-CoA mutase; 12 = thioester hydrolase (?); 13 = S-β-aminoisobutyrate-α-ketoglutarate transaminase.
